Proverbs 1:14
Verse 14 of 33. The 1st of 31 chapters in Proverbs, in Poetry and Wisdom.
10My son, if sinners entice you, don’t consent.
11If they say, “Come with us. Let’s lie in wait for blood. Let’s lurk secretly for the innocent without cause.
12Let’s swallow them up alive like Sheol, and whole, like those who go down into the pit.
13We’ll find all valuable wealth. We’ll fill our houses with plunder.
14You shall cast your lot among us. We’ll all have one purse”—
15my son, don’t walk on the path with them. Keep your foot from their path,
16for their feet run to evil. They hurry to shed blood.
17For the net is spread in vain in the sight of any bird;
18but these lay in wait for their own blood. They lurk secretly for their own lives.
